To be fair, with such low turnouts here, maybe we could petition to move back? Scrap lites (or only have them here), but ask to have big games in the OT?
That might actually be an idea. Now I'd be sad to lose lites, so they indeed should continue here if they can't be moved to, but yes there's not much doubt that it'd probably benefit from being moved back to OT. The biggest problem is that we're quite invisible to newcomers.To be fair, with such low turnouts here, maybe we could petition to move back?

It's nice that we agree for once. Lites are a bit of a lost cause at the moment, so I think we should keep them here and only ask for that one thread in the OT (our big game). It would probably bring new people here as well, so that would be a boost for lites.
Going to wait for a few more opinions to come in, then I'll message Blade! about this idea.
We probably should have a link to this sub forum and an explanation about lites existing in a separate post at the start of the game---i.e. the GM should post that just after the roster or something like that. Said post should probably also contain a link to this thread so that people know where things are planned.It's nice that we agree for once.

I thought OT already knew your thoughts on the Jewish people.The OT can't know my filthy secret!

I don't like the idea. I would feel....ghettoized. It would also seriously limit the flow of the new blood into the game, as most non-Werewolf OToers woudn't even vendor into that part of forum.
I found WW through Livingstone's sig. He had a link to his Carthadian moment in Psychosis.
Also, FWIW, I think moving to the OT would be a very bad decision. That place is a cesspool.
How come?
There are many similarities. The largest differences between werewolf and mafia is the original purpose of the cultist, as far as I'm aware (forget exactly what that was), but in recent years werewolf and mafia groups have played more or less identical games. Terminology is the greatest leading divider left in werewolf/mafia. It's worth noting that we're pretty different, generally speaking, from other werewolf/mafia sites.Isn't mafia the same as werewolf?
Through Tamius' sig. I was lurking in AARland and found I believe his Shaybanid AAR. I followed the link and began lurking in Werewolf games.That might be the sticking point. I only just saw what happened with Jacksonian's Lite, didn't know it was quite that bad.
I say leave things for as long as it takes to get a GM who wants to do it and has a firm plan for what they want to do, then get the game up and try spread some awareness. But if the game is going to maintain a presence here long term an OT informational thread needs to be made. Links in signatures for those active in AAR-Land/elsewhere help too.
Actually, a straw poll:
How did you find this sub-forum?
I found it through one of EUROO7's AARs way back when he used to make them.
I'm split. On the one hand, Lites have always been my favorite part of Werewolf. Continuing in that vein, I don't want to attract trolls, or alienate contentious people on accident (remember when some outsiders came in, and the disaster that caused?). However, I'd like the chance to welcome some newer players in, and continue this grand tradition we call Paradox Werewolf in a livelier setting. All told, I will still be playing either way, but... I think I would like to give moving a Big game to OT a shot.It's nice that we agree for once.
